LEE COUNTY, Fla. - Chances are you've seen shops selling CBD oil all over Southwest Florida. It's advertised to help pain relief, depression, anxiety and a number of other ailments, but now the state says it is not legal.

There are two kinds of CBD oil: the kind from hemp which is legal, and the kind from marijuana which is not legal. That's because it can contain up to 30 percent THC.

The problem? The industry isn't regulated. Until lawmakers regulate it, places selling CBD could be breaking the law.
